There are many statements made, particularly in the current political climate, that are often accepted as true. One of the most oft repeated is that"we [as a country] don't make things anymore." Another is that we have lost all our manufacturing jobs to outsourcing.

Once again I want to thank my editor "Wires" for his assistance with this story. His advice has improved this chapter drastically. I have made a few changes since his last review and want to emphasize any errors are definitely mine.
Over the course of the next nine years Roger's country continued to grow. He stopped building new naval ships when he had s...

Kyle was having a very sexy dream, one more exciting and vivid than he had ever imagined. Brianna was romping naked and dancing with him in passion and delight. The flashing curves of her breasts and legs, her joyful laugh and bright smiling eyes filled the dream. Kyle gasped as Brianna dominated him for coupling, gasped again as she rolled to let him mount...

Why do humans constantly glamorize the life of us Gods in their novels? Seriously. I wish they would stop. We who are called Gods by the ordinary mortals of the planet Earth are anything but. Say, do you know the story of Superman, from the comic books? On his home planet, he's a regular Joe and when he's on Earth, he's got super powers. Well, the same goes...

The age of technology is upon us. I'm not sure where I've been the last few years, but as I teach elementary school, I realize that I am behind the times when it comes to gadgets. I have a cell phone and laptop computer. That's about it and I like it that way. I don't need an MP3 player that can play thousands of songs. I don't need to watch videos while rid...

I've often been called an arrogant bastard with psychopathic and megalomaniac tendencies. That's not very flattering. I'm a free-spirited visionary who lacks a conscience and inhibitions. That's what I call myself. In the eyes of the world, I am Paul Jackson Billings, a student at the Alabama Institute of Technology. The world is mine. Nothing you or anyone...

And here I thought sequels could only go downhill...
Maybe it's because I watched "The Marine" last week, but "Live Free or Die Hard" is one of the best action movies I've seen in a long time.
Not only is there an actual plot, but for some reason when Bruce Willis spews those expected cheesy lines, he doesn't sound cheesy. I mean, sure, the line is expec...

There were once a lot of dumb people in this world. I'm amazed by this more and more every day that goes by. In all of nature, nothing that exists acts against its own best interests. Animals and plants do all that they can to ensure their own survival. All of these life forms follow the same basic plan. Self-improvement, reproduction and the furtherance of...
